VPZINC Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Was talking to a friend of mine today. They came up with it on a set up that was only permitted for 130,000 I think he said and it went over the scales at 224,000.

RFCDrum Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 Yea probably. I wonder how much money they are losing with this since it's been 3 weeks with this going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hicrop10 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 That a good size load.If they were only permitted for 130,000 then they are f-----.I move our Cat 375 with the boom and counterweight still intacted and I tilted the scale at 210,000.My permit was only good for 200,000,down here in PA if you go over 204,000 they would make you get a supersize permit,just alot more bs and money.I left in early morning around 3am and made it to where I was going by 6am.Had only a couple of state tropers wave as they went by.By the way I had a 4 axle Mack CL700 with a 4axle talbert.We did have a 75 ton Rodgers lowboy that had 4 axles and 12-00x24 rubber that was sold to someone up in NY state.I got a call from a fellow about 3 years ago and he wanted to know if we were missing a lowboy,our lettering was showing through on the gooseneck.

RFCDrum Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 Carbro did the very first phase of the sewer work through Hillburn about 7 years ago I'm surprised they bid another round as they lost their shirt on it with the granite they hit all through the project.

hicrop10 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 That's a great video.Wish Pa would have done that when we were working.I never had a problem with the state police stopping us,they were more help then anything.It was the local police that was the problem,they go to a week long class about moving heavy load and all a sudden they knew everything there was to know about moving oversize loads.

PeterMack Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Caught this Midwest Specialized Carrier's Pete on 11 axles with a 345 CAT at the Flying J in Effingham IL a few yearsago. Was just at dusk so it didn't turn out as good as I would have liked. Thought it looked cool sitting there though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r686st Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Reel AddictionI'm guessing you own the PC160? If so how do you like it and what does it weigh? My dad is looking to buy a 200 or 220 but I kind of favor the 160 because it's lighter in weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
